World Poker Tour : Daniel Alaei won the last stage of 2009
It is a little festivity before Christmas for the player Daniel Alaei who has just gained the World Poker Tour Doyle Brunson Five Diamond Classic and he becomes the last winner of the year. And the Santa Claus was not miserly with him, in addition to the famous bracelet, he sets out again with a check of 1,428,430 dollars. The year 2009 was particularly good for Daniel Alaei. He arrived at two final tables in the World Series of Poker of which one ended in a victory. The year 2009 enabled him to win more than 2 million dollars. The winner of the 1998 World Series of Poker (WSOP), Scotty Nguyen, however the favorite of the final table, finished the tournament at the fifth place and this in spite of a very good second place at the beginning of the final table. It was not a fairy tale finale for “The Master Men” Nguyen, as he told a few days ago.
Steve O'Dwyner was the first to leave the final table, eliminated after 47 hands. The A6 of Steve was not enough to beat the two Jacks of Scotty Nguyen. Later the 99 was not able to reverse the KK of Faraz Jaka. The final head's up was played between Daniel Alaei and Josh Arieh, they had respectively 6.78 million and 12.99 million tokens. In spite of this beautiful advance, Josh Arieh released after 31 hands after a little more than one hour. So, Arieh brought back home 952,290 $ for its second place.
